- Preserves resale value and mechanical integrity
- Compliant with U.S. EPA guidelines for import vehicle treatment
Note: Wax protection is recommended for all shipment types but is mandatory for RO-RO and Bulk Cargo due to high exposure.
5. Recommended Solution by Use Case
| Fleet Requirement | Recommended Method | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| High-volume, operational trucks | RO-RO + Wax Spray | Cost-per-unit lowest; efficient loading; wax mitigates deck exposure |
| Inoperable or damaged units | Flat Rack + Wax Spray | Accommodates non-functional units; full structural access for securing |
| Budget-constrained procurement | Bulk Cargo + Wax Spray | Lowest base cost; suitable for repairable units destined for reconditioning in Oklahoma |
| Mixed-condition fleet | Hybrid: RO-RO + Flat Rack | Optimize cost and protection across vehicle conditions |
6. Compliance & Documentation
All shipments comply with:
– IMSBC Code (for Bulk Cargo)
– CTU Code (Cargo Transport Unit, for Flat Racks)
– USDA APHIS – Undercarriage soil/debris inspection
– CBP Entry Filing – EPA, DOT, and NHTSA import standards for used vehicles
Pre-shipment inspection (PSI) conducted per ISO 104:2019 standards at origin.
7. Conclusion
For fleet managers and construction companies sourcing used trucks from China, RO-RO shipping with full wax-based corrosion protection offers the optimal balance of cost, speed, and volume efficiency for operational units. Flat Rack transport remains critical for non-driveable or oversized equipment, despite higher per-unit costs. Bulk Cargo is viable for budget-focused procurement but requires rigorous post-arrival reconditioning.
